Chapter 71 A speech worth 50,000 yuan, creating hundreds of millions of profits

Professor Lu Yishan went to the dean's office to submit a summary of this month's work.

He is now the leader of the algebra research group. As the name suggests, it is a group of professors, lecturers and teaching assistants who study algebra together.

In all 985 universities, there are various groups composed of school teachers.

For example, math group, physics group, computer group...

Each group is divided into separate groups. For example, the mathematics group has an algebra group and a number theory group.

Although Lu Yishan specializes in set theory, he also specializes in algebra.

It is impossible for a full professor of mathematics at a 985 university to only know one subject, mathematics.

They are good at all mathematics categories and specialize in one to three subjects.

Professor Lu Yishan specializes in set theory and group theory and Lie groups in algebra, and he also knows a bit about everything else.

After Lu Yishan handed in his work summary, he did not leave immediately and said: "Dean, Ye Fei has been working for nearly a semester!"

"Yeah!" The dean thought for a moment, nodded and sighed: "Time flies so fast, it's almost a semester, why do you ask?"

"Is this year's outstanding youth competition going to start?"

Distinguished Young Scholars, whose full name is the National Science Fund for Outstanding Youth, selects about 160 outstanding national youths every year, and each of them is funded with funding ranging from 800,000 to 1.6 million for a period of 4 years.

In addition to the requirements of being a citizen of Xia, good morals and experience in undertaking research projects.

They must also be under 45 years old, have a doctoral degree, and have been working for more than nine months.

The dean said funnyly: "You always want to benefit your students."

"Hehe..." Lu Yishan smiled and said nothing.

The dean said: "But he hasn't reached the end of his working life, hasn't he?"

Lu Yishan said: "Yes, there is a rule in Outstanding Youth League. If you have strong personal ability and are highly recommended by the university, you can apply even if you have not yet completed your working years."

The dean nodded and said, "That's okay."

"But there are only one or two places each year. You are asking me to compete with other colleges!"

Lu Yishan licked his face and smiled: "Dean, I still need to trouble you about this matter."

"Hey..." the dean sighed and said, "Okay, I'll try my best to get it, but don't have too much hope. The 160 outstanding youth quotas are allocated to all universities and research institutes across the country, so there are too many!"

"And the number of places highly recommended by colleges and universities is only one or two per year for each 985 university."

"At this time, all colleges are watching."

"Although Ye Fei is excellent, it is only in our School of Mathematics. In other colleges, even if they know that Ye Fei is excellent, they will not give the places highly recommended by universities to our School of Mathematics."

"Besides, you also know that mathematics in our school is not a top major, it is only a first-class major in the province."

"So in terms of competition, it is inherently weaker than other colleges."

Lu Yishan said cautiously: "Didn't Ye Fei just help the school get a laser research laboratory? When you talk to the superiors, the school should consider this aspect!"

The dean nodded and said: "That's true, but it's still a bit difficult to win."

"Again, no matter how good Ye Fei is, he is only from our School of Mathematics. Other colleges will definitely not want to give us places."

"But I will definitely try my best to fight for it."

Ye Fei carried his computer bag and walked into the office from the outside.

He had just finished a class. When he returned to the office, he sat down at his seat, took out his computer from his bag, turned it on, and prepared to browse Arxiv.

At this time, the academic director came in from outside.

Tan Lingling quickly stood up and greeted us with a smile: "Director, why do you have time to come to our place?"

The director smiled and said, "Don't I have something to ask you for?"

He looked at Ye Fei and smiled: "Ye Fei, are you busy?"

Ye Fei stopped what he was doing, looked at the director, and said, "Director, is something wrong?"

The director looked around, then pulled up a stool, sat next to Ye Fei, and said, "Shuimu University has invited you to give a lecture, will you go?"

"Shui Mu University?" A trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the other three people in the office.

You know, as one of the top two universities in the country, Shuimu University rarely sends out lecture invitations to other universities in the country. It usually sends lecture invitations to top universities in the world.

I didn't expect to send an invitation to Ye Fei this time. Moreover, Ye Fei is not a professor, just a lecturer.

"Shuimu University?" Ye Fei frowned and said in confusion: "Why did Shuimu University send me a lecture invitation? What should I go to speak?"

The director said: "Shuimu University has also said this. Did you publish a paper recently? It's called Gaussian Circle..."

"Research on the proof of the inner area of ​​Gaussian circle." Ye Feidao.

"Yes!" The director nodded and said, "Yes, it is a study on the proof of the area inside the Gaussian circle."

He smiled bitterly and said, "Look at my brain, I can't even remember it."

"There is a mathematics group in the School of Mathematics at Shuimu University. It is a group composed of many mathematics professors, lecturers and teaching assistants from Shuimu University. It specializes in mathematical research."

"One of the groups, after seeing your paper, conducted some research."

"I found that your research is very helpful for Gaussian beams, so I want you, the author of the paper, to give a lecture."

Gaussian beam, or laser beam, uses a large number of Gaussian functions, which is one of the main application research directions for the application of Gaussian functions.

There is no need to go into details about the role of laser. Its application range is very wide.

Even though lasers have been studied for many years, many applications of lasers have not been thoroughly studied.

There are still many people studying it.

Ye Fei thought about it for a moment, and that was fine. Shuimu University happened to gather a group of the best people in the country. If he gave a speech by himself, he could gain a lot of inspiration.

Ye Feidao: "What about the cost?"

There is a fee for giving a speech. It is impossible to give a speech for free just because the other party is Shuimu University.

This is not to give a speech, but to be a licker.

"According to regulations, lecturers' speech fees are not too high." The director said, "But your speech fee is still quite high."

"When you were in school, you once gave a lecture at Fudan University, and the fee was 20,000 yuan."

"Now you are a lecturer, and the speaking fee is 50,000."

"Fifty thousand?" Ye Fei nodded and said, "Okay, please help me reply, and I'll go give a speech."

"Fifty thousand?" Tan Lingling and others were surprised.

Are Ye Fei's speaking fees so high?

Generally speaking, the lecture fee for an associate professor in the school is between 10,000 and 20,000, and for a full professor, it is between 20,000 and 40,000. Unexpectedly, Ye Fei's fee is 50,000.

This is more than the lecture fee of a full professor.

In fact, it was mainly because Fudan University raised Ye Fei's worth back then.

Back then, when he was still studying for his Ph.D., Fudan University offered him 20,000 yuan to give a lecture.

After he became a lecturer, his speaking fee doubled or tripled, which is why the speaking fee is now 50,000.

Otherwise, according to regulations, the lecturer's speaking fee is about 5,000.

Ye Fei's current speech prices are inconsistent with market logic and are purely caused by price gouging.

Speaking fees will only go up, not go down.

In the future, as Ye Fei's achievements become higher and higher, speaking fees will continue to increase.

The director stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, this is what I came here to talk about. I'm leaving. I'm going to reply to Shuimu University now. You wait for my news."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After the director left, Tan Lingling immediately looked at Ye Fei in surprise and chirped: "I didn't expect your speech fee to be so high? One speech of yours is worth less than half a year's salary to me."

Ye Fei shook his head and said funnyly: "It's been a long time since I had a speech. This kind of thing is rare."

Tan Lingling said with a smile: "Do you want an assistant? I will be your assistant."

Ye Fei shook his head and said, "I can't afford to treat you."

Tan Lingling's family situation is very good, and she usually has tens of thousands of pocket money.

With my little money, I can give Tan Lingling at least 100,000 yuan a month!

Tan Lingling said: "It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. I mainly want to visit Shuimu University. I haven't been to Shuimu University yet."

Ye Feidao: "If you want to take a look, you can go at any time. Shuimu University is not closed to the public and allows people from other schools to visit."

Tan Lingling smiled, she was just joking.
